Yellow in the living room interior - your personal summer
We intuitively feel the heat, the sun and the summer, being in a room with yellow trim or furniture. As an experiment, people can be taken into absolutely identical rooms with identical air temperatures one by one, it is proved that in a room with yellow walls it gets warmer - the heart beats a little more often, the blood pulsates more intensively, spreading warmth through the body. If you need to equip or repair the dark, cold room of the living room, then many of the shades of yellow will be able to provide you with a service in creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Shades of yellow in the interior contribute to mental activity, creative thinking, creative pursuits and physical activities. That is why it is recommended that different yellow tones be used not in the bedroom, where you need to prepare for sleep and completely relax, but in the common rooms, offices, and nurseries.
Bright yellow color very actively affects the human psyche, but it has many more “calm” shades - sand, ocher, golden, pastel yellow, mustard. The use of such muted shades, even with total use for surface finishing, will not have a strong effect on the emotional state of households and your guests, but can give a slight sensation of warmth.
Successful color combinations in the interior of the living room
Yellow and white
Among the latest trends in interior design is a combination of bright colors with a white tone. Perhaps the yellow color can be called the lightest among bright, saturated colors, so its combination with white will not look very contrasting, pleasant to the eye and will have a beneficial effect on the atmosphere of the room. The interior is light, airy. In such a room, people feel at ease, but at the same time actively and happily.
In our country, homeowners do not often use bright shades to decorate the ceiling. But look what an interesting alliance of yellow surfaces (including ceiling) with a snow-white edging can turn out. The repetition of white in other interior items will create a harmonious design of the living room, and the addition of bright multi-colored prints will only increase the degree of the room, add summer enthusiasm.
Any shade of yellow goes well with white. But the special nobility and luxury of your living room (even with the simplest interior) will add a mustard tint. Complete with a white tone, it looks quite active, but it does not irritate the eye and easily transfers the integration of other colors as a metered introduction.
Mustard yellow and black
In its pure form, a combination of bright yellow and black colors to decorate the living room is not just a very bold design decision, but also a physically, emotionally and psychologically complex version of combinatorics. If you use a soft shade of yellow, ocher or light mustard, with a metered use of black as contrast, you can get a very outstanding interior with an original decor. With the help of a black edging and highlighting of various interior items, it is possible to achieve a more structural room, to give the design some geometricity and clarity.
Yellow and brown options
The combination of yellow with brown can have a different degree of contrast, depending on which wood or brown tone is used. If brown is not too dark, the result is always a gentle and light combination of shades that helps create a warm and cozy atmosphere in the living room. In such a room it will be comfortable for both your household and guests.
Yellow and blue
A very contrasting combination of colors, not only in terms of brightness, but also in terms of the degree of impact on our psyche - the blue color is the coldest, and yellow against its background literally glows with bursts of warm energy. The interior with the use of combinations of two so active colors always turns out to be interesting, extraordinary and bright, even if not the most saturated variants of yellow and blue are taken as the basis for decoration. The difference in textures further enhances the effect of the opposites of a pair of active colors.
Yellow and gold
It would seem that colors close in tonality to each other, and in combination, create interesting options for the perception of not only decoration and furniture, but also the room as a whole. Using yellow as the basis for wall decoration, and gold as a window decor or furniture, you can create a really interesting and even luxurious living room interior. Golden brocade for curtains or organza for curtains will be an ideal option for window decoration in a large room with yellow trim.
Yellow and green
Related colors are always perfectly combined with each other - because in any green shade there is at least a little yellow. The combination of yellow and green as the basis for decoration always creates a summer mood in the room, sets in a positive mood, energizes. If there is rarely sun in your living room, if it is located on the ground floor in the shady part of the courtyard, then such combinatorics in the design of the room can become your personal sun at any time of the year.
Yellow and gray
Gray color belongs to the neutral group, in contrast to bright yellow, it soothes activity, neutralizes negative emotions, and “smooths out” the saturation of the sunny hue. Depending on which color you choose as the main one, you can create different types of living room interior. If yellow modestly acts only as an accent, then in general the living room will look neutral, but modern. Advantageously, the gray-yellow interior is influenced by the addition of white surfaces or interior items, textiles.
Yellow and shade of red
Both of these colors belong to the warm group. If you use saturated bright shades of both colors, then the interior will turn out to be very invigorating, active, keeping in tone. For a more relaxed combination, it is recommended to use “whitened” options for bright colors. Light yellow or ocher and terracotta or coral colors will create an interesting and memorable combination, help create a non-trivial interior of the living room.
Pastel yellow
Interiors that use pastel shades of vibrant colors are often called soufflés. This name is not surprising, because light, unobtrusive shades, whitened colors create a light and bright atmosphere, pleasant to the eye and calmly perceived by our psyche. A light yellow tone in combination with beige, grayish and golden hues can create an interior of a living room in which everyone will be comfortable relaxing, relaxing, chatting in a narrow circle or hosting a small group of guests.
